Excellent turnout, Purdey.

Louding, Girls ... One two Three.

Excellent.

Remmember. When you screaming, you're screaming for England.

Miss, turn around!

Forward, walk!

It's here.

Time to go home, Proffessor.

Oh, but you're sweaty.

Yet it is not so warm here.

Not as warm as many things you'll find at home.

You will walk calmly to the plane, Proffessor Vasil.

You will walk. Or we will carry you.

Sorry.

Professor, this is Roland.

He groves roses.

The variegated variety, isn't that sir Roland?

I also ...

... interested in special kind.

Do you good in gardening, professor?

I just want to stay alive.

That is not problem for you anymore, proffessor.

That is more problem for dear our Perov.

Here, he missed this one.

Perov. What a failure. Monumental.

They will be indulgent.

- They must be. - No.

You are right. It's a monumental failure.

We knew that Proffessor Vasil would going to defect.

And they snatched him from under our noses.

Snatched by ...

... a group of screaming girls.

Failure, I can accept it.

Laughter, I can not.

And you will take over from me now.

Perhaps. If I'm consent it worthy

You're good girl, Olga.

Would you leave me alone for a moment, please?

Olga.

I can not face their laughter.

I can not face their laughter.

Perov?

Steed.

Olga.

Exceptional beautiful spy.

I'm a cultural Attache.

- Oh, yes. - And you always making jokes.

Make jokes, not war.

I thought you're making love not war.

What a delightful idea.

Except for high walls between us.

You came here with a sense of sadness, perhaps.

Yes, with a sense of relief.

Or Perov was always trickiest of your ... Cultural Attache.

You'll will be able to serve this again, Cartney.

I always do.

- How are you feeling? - Very much alive!

It's a good trick.

A drug that suspends the heart and the respiration.

I will show you even better.

Take a card. Any one.

David?

Darling, what's wrong?

David, what is it?

Suzy, grab your coat, take the car, go straight to the cottage ...

... and wait for me there.

What?

We knew it what happened one day.

Go quickly and do not stop!

- Darling! - Go ahead. I'll join you as soon as possible.

He sends his wife ...

... scuttling away

It's no more than I expected. Miller was always the weak link ...

... and we couldn't rely on him.

He always was a risk.

A calculated risk.

Who is this please?

Steed. John Steed.

I am so sorry, you've been troubled.

Wrong number, I suppose.

He goes away. He tried to call Steed.

I expected that too.

At least we know where he is heading.

- Ice? - Please.

Who these?

Oh, just some fillies I've toyed with.

She is magnificent.

Yes, beautiful.

We went through some tricky situations together. Faithful, reliable.

And this one?

Well, very spirited and very special.

A fantastic creature.

I had to whip it sometimes.

And the other one?

Excellent. Great action but too much appetite.

I sold it to an Arab prince.

- I think he eventually had to shoot her. - Shoot her?

I thought you ...

I thought you were referring to these.

Steed!

It's David Miller.

What happened?

Beware ...

King ...

Hearts.

So far, so good.

So far ...

Perfect!

But, we must not rest on our laurels.

What's that?

It's you.

Your ashes.

It'll be sent back to our beloved homeland no doubt.

Send them to the embassy. They'll deliver them.

And you ...

... know where to deliver this?

Spence?

Very good, Purdey.

But a touch too much compassion.

You're now dead.

A little too much confidence, Spence.

You didn't say the lesson was over.

Very clever.

And the lesson is over.

- Isn't ever some throw. - She's some girl.

Mike. Mike Gambit!

Nice to see you here. You don't come here often enough.

- How are you? - It's okay.

Did she use her most potent weapon?

Her big, helpless smile.

Someone left this on the door for you.

You have all the luck, you know Spence.

Yes, getting to wrestle with beautiful women. - You're joking.

Are you coming to workout?

I am looking for a squash partner. Want you a blanch?

No thanks. I think, I saw you playing squash.

What about you, Spence?

- What's that? - Game of squash?

- Money on it? - No.

Tell you what. The winner gets to take Purdy out to dinner.

All right.

We need something to inspire.

I also saw Spence play. Okay.

But you did not see us play squash together.

Why squash?

Why not a fight?

A fight to death.

Unless you are afraid to face me.

It must be worth.

Allright, I'm going to change.

Well, meet someone in an dark alley, Mike.

You don't have time to changing into a robe.

Right.

- Now, outside you. - Why?

No routing for either side.

Shall I book the table or will you spins?

Been a long time.

Yes, it has.

I taught you everything, you know.

I've added a few things since then.

Very into practice.

In that case, we better observe the formalities.

Are you crazy!

For Pete's sake, you are killing me!

There's still time for a game of squash.

He tried to kill me.

Why?

We send these photographs back to his family.

Right.

Pack these books and get rid of it.

And these?

The House of Cards.

Without Perov, they're useless.

Just a minute.

- Hearts. - What ?

The hearts. The whole sheet of hearts is missing.

Spence. That good old Spence.

I've known him since I started.

It's like...

But it's like finding out the Buckingham Palace ...

... has been leased for Chinese.

A mixed metaphor that I get the point.

I felt equally confused when David Miller fell dead on me.

It's like somebody's taking a teddy bear off your bed.

But I don't have a teddy bear in my bed.

He keeps it in a safe deposit along with his other valuables.

David Miller was having breakfast here with his wife.

He opened his letters. - And ...

... he found this.

Just try to say, isn't it? Beware,

... King, Hearts.

Beware, indeed.

Some kind of code?

A death warrant.

Roland will help us over this. You coming with me?

Purdy.

Now if we could find David's wife she obviously left here ...

... in a hurry she took a car. - And went to their country cottage.

They seem to be doing something to garden.

And you don't tend a garden unless you own it.

- Logical. - Definitely.

And there only about 20 million cottages spread across England.

Not with a church in the background.

Not with a church with Flintstone Saxon tower.

Didn't I tell you, my father's a bishop?

We'll track it down in no time.

Purdy, you said that your father was shot as a spy 10 years ago.

That's before he became a bishop.

Before?

Before my father became a bishop. My mother remarried.

Spence, a fail. It's unforgivable!

Our people are losing their edge. They're getting flabby.

Everybody's getting flabby, Cartney.

But me. I got on my toes. I get more cunning.

Now the fact that Gambit is still alive is not so terrible.

It may even work in our favor.

It may have them to get the message sooner.

And speaking of messages ...

To turn the other cheek.

To love your neighbor.

In the face of the aggressions and the adversities of today's world,

... is that possible?

A question that haunts us all.

I will give you the answer.

Is the aggressor your enemy ...

or is God's?

Ask yourself the question.

Look at deep of your soul.

And if your enemy is God's,

... then smite him down!

Roland?

Something we need your advice on.

We came round right away ...

What are we whispering for?

There. They're meeting.

Right out here in the open. Very permissive?

It's a beautiful moment.

For them, may be.

Harvest sunrise and beets joy, brought together for the first time.

They should generate wonderful hues.

The green fly, black fly, black spot and mildew don't get at him first.

Well?

What do you think?

Obvious. A playing cards. Cut in half.

Something more than that.

One of them predicted a murder.

And the other, an near murder.

- Code cards? - Something like that.

Cards. Code cards ...

Cards. House of cards ...

House of cards!

It is unconfirmed rumor, but they.. they did say Perov ...

- But.. Perov's dead. - Never mind. Go on.

A some years ago, it must be a about 20,

Perov in other side.

We knew he was up to something and we found out.

What?

That he what up to something. Code name: House of cards.

Which was?

But we never found out.

Something deadly, something devious.

Well, it was Perov's style, wasn't it?

I think it was a mystery ... - Roland!

Forgive me, I'm disturbing you?

Not at all. It's always a pleasure.

- Frederick reminded me I always promised to visit. - Just in time.

- They haven't? - Not quite.

But they're deffinetly thinking about it.

Splendid. Marvelous!

A miracle of nature!

Of course with helping of yours.

Do you play golf?

I asked, because I do much.

It appears that it can become very addictive.

To the point of forgetting everything ... This was a false sermon.

I meant that Roland and I ...

... we are both fascinated by the reproduction of roses.

Sorry. This is John Steed.

Michael Gambit.

John Steed.

Oh, I must confess sometimes when I should be bravely leading my Flocker,

... fear I am preoccupied with in voracious of the green fly.

Sinfully preoccupied.

I suppose you might say that I'm something about Rose nut.

Well, Sir, Well, Sir, I'm sure you're matched in Roland.

- We been touch. - If I remember any more.

The cross between Royal Poacher and Virgin of Hertfordshire

is lie a positive lovely ...

Funny when he mentioned Perov. I was thinking of Perov.

Yes, that was I.

It's the trickiest of them all.

I had thought I might go back to the crematorium ...

I struck down a sinner!

I can not believe it.

Frederick is at my service for 20 years!

He must be a brain stroke.

He pulled a gun on me. It's like to kill me.

Bishop, do you haven't have a stepdaughter?

Not so high, graceful and very nubile?

Yes, indeed. I do, but how did you know?

I noticed the resemblance.

Resemblance, but she's my stepdaughter.

Somebody tried to murder Roland.

Took a potted him by the potting shed.

We were right then.

Whoever took the cards controled Perov.

And must be on the way.

You know who try to next, don't you?

Steed.

You want me to?

No.

I take care of Mr. Steed personally.

Mrs. Miller!

David taught me to use the gun.

He told me that I .. I must use it ...

... if anyone at all came and used to our name.

We're known as Mr. and Mrs. Jones here.

David is dead, isn't he?

Frederick.

You tried to murder Roland. Why?

I had to. I always had to.

20 years with the bishop driving him here and there. 20 years.

And then suddenly ... Why?

What does this mean?

I was trained I had to ... - For the card play

Tell me about the card.

Card. I don't know. I have just one of a pack.

There was a card. Half a card.

David had the other.

If it ever arrived.

He would have to go to .. go to work again.

To go to work again?

- What kind of work? - He wouldn't say.

You did say again. So it must have been working done before.

He joked once upon being retired,

... link that he sleep.

Sleep. He said sleep?

Did he ever use the word sleeper?

A sleeper? David Miller?

I ran his record back 21 years.

And that's as far as he goes 21 years.

After that it gets hazy.

He went to schools that don't exist anymore.

Had friends who are conveniently missing or dead.

Works for companies that burn down.

All the classic hallmarks of a sleeper.

David. He was a friend, a good friend

This is why he died. He wanted to get out.

He was trying to warn you.

He died still a good friend.

It's all working perfectly. Perfectly.

He only began to exist 20 years ago.

Before that blank. Nothing he could tell me.

Mrs. Miller, was David alone?

That past he wouldn't talk of ...

Was there anyone from that time he ever mentioned? - No

Yes ... I do not know.

Yes?

Quite recently. A hunt ball.

You know how mad keen on horses David and Steve were.

Well, there are about 300 people.

And there was one ...

When we were introduced I .. I knew that David met her before.

He was so ... he was so shocked.

Met who before?

- Well, this woman. - What woman?

I ..I don't remember her name. But Steed certainly will.

He brought her. she was Steed's date

No. Let me.

You sit down. Relax.

You need a woman's care.

You think so?

Definitely.

But not anyone.

Purdy.

Well, what the devil think you're doing?

If it wasn't in her coat pocket so it must be in her purse.

John, is she mad?

Yes, I think so. Purdy.

Purse. Look in it.

I'm not gonna ransack to lady's personal possessions.

She's no lady.

You are overwrought.

- Give me that gun. - Look in her purse!

Look in it!

I'm sorry, John. - Sorry?

With Steed's name on the back of it.

She came here to kill you.

You weren't doing that, were you Johnny? You were coming to warn me.

There is no gun.

She must have planned something else then.

I'm sorry Steed.

And I really am!

They promised me it would be quick. Painless.

Who promised you?

I don't know. It came through the mail with the card.

Who from, who sent it?

Can I talk to you alone? John!

Let me go, John. Let me run.

You'll never see me again.

The idea of prison. I'd die John.

- We meant something to each. - And he'd be dead.

Then you let me go.

I never did tell you about my marriage? My one and only marriage.

I married a job. I married a profession.

I've been very faithful.

Cartney? Mr. Cartney?

- It was you who called me? - Yes.

An emergency you said. A dying man.

No dying people here, Dr. Tulliver.

Only dead ones.

Is this some kind of sick joke?

Tulliver!

Don't you recognize me?

No, but why should you it's been more than 20 years.

But I know you, Tulliver.

Or lvan Skovitch.

Perov?

You do recognize me.

Perov. Why are you here?

You know why.

No. That's in the past. Forgotten.

I'm respected now a doctor I work ...

You work for me!

You always have.

Oh, did I perhaps, train you too well comrade. Did I make you too English, hmm?

But no, that can not be.

You will never forget the old loyalties, would you?

Would you?

No, no. Of course not.

It's such a shock. That's all such a shock.

What do you want of me?

All I can found a pork chop. I'm completely out of beefsteak.

I feel deeply ashamed at hitting a woman.

But you are unlucky. You came along when I needed to hit something.

Feeling better?

I think it terrible.

I don't think it's gonna bruise.

- Now, what were you doing out there? - Out where?

Come on. You must be not there the whole time watching. Why?

Just to see that Joanna put the poison in the right drink?

You don't see that.

I do not know what are you talking about.

And how about the Castle of cards?

Waste not, want not.

Save a little, make a little.

They also thrive who stay alive.

Shall we talk about Comrade Perov?

The late lamented Perov.

Cat get your tongue?

Or perhaps you're the quiet kind. Reticent.

You need to warm up a little first.

The house of the card is a code name.

For a batch of sleepers?

Agents kept in cold storage until they wanted.

It was old Perov's idea.

Infiltrated thirteen agents in this country more than twenty years ago.

All of them trained to assassins. All of them ready to kill.

- There is a man! - I know.

- With a gun! - Yes.

- He's in that chair! - Unconscious.

What?

I was just here before he came in.

And clobbered him for you.

He's been cold for a couple of hours, I'd say.

Why didn't you tell me before? Why did you waiting to I've got to ...

Silly question.

Silly question.

Gambit, you know one of those days ...

You keep saying that.

Would you please get out of my bedroom?

Oh, I'm sorry.

It seems that the golden age of chivalry is quite dead.

Not quite.

We know more wild charges or Dragons. But I did save your life.

He was carrying it.

That completes the circle.

You, me, Steed, Roland.

And?

Proffessor Vasil.

We pulled that key together.

I thought we were the only three on the list.

Apart from Perov.

Perov is dead!

No.

That's been at the back of your mind too hasn't it?

Perov is still alive.

Perov is the trickiest of all.

- He's master of double play. - It's definitely his style.

This maps of revenge and grudge.

Perov too astute for that.

If he is alive, he's got an awful lot of cards left to play.

Against us? - No.

Vasil.

But that's impossible! Vasil is in safe ground.

Only you know where he is.

Perov can't possibly get Vasil, can he?

Until a few hours ago I thought a lot of things were impossible.

Vasil is a very important store. I think I should be minding it.

Are we accompanied?

It's better if no one knows where he is.

I suppose, I could try putting squeeze on the lovely Olga.

To see if she has any ideas where Perov is.

We.

If the lovely Olga is going to be squeezed.

I think, I should be there too.

Just in case you get carried away.

Ask him to call me, will you?

Yes, John Steed. As soon as possible.

The lovely Olga is not available at the moment.

Thinking of committing hari-kari or don't.

If you're thinking of throwing yourself away. Throw yourself my way!

You swallowed it.

She swallowed it.

Listen!

North!

What's going on?

You are crazy. Completely ...

Shut up and keep looking up there.

Not there. To the north!

And what am I looking for?

Helicopter, what else!

A helicopter. Right.

Purdy, you are dying. You are poisoned.

The point, I'm not. Do I look as if I'm dying?

Well, how do I look?

Beautiful, wonderful, fantastic.

- Really? - Honestly.

I don't know when I've seen you looking so good. Don't keep your eyes on the road.

Alright Purdy. I believe you so you are not dying.

- Now will you please stop the car ... - There it is!

I heart the helicopter turn for any longer.

I'm not usually take it slow, but if you just ...

Just just keep your eyes firmly fixed on it.

All right, all right, but keep your eyes on the road.

Why didn't Perov kill Steed?

He killed David Miller in front of Steed. He could have killed him too.

- Gambit, just keep looking at it. - I am.

I'm sure you have a point. A very good point.

Now if you could just slow down and we could discuss ...

And the poison capsule.

Why use poison when she could have slid a knife between his ribs ...

.. or pulled a trigger?

That capsule was filled with water.

If you say so.

Perov did not want to kill Steed, He wanted him scare.

Scared for Vasil's safety.

He wanted him racing off to find Vasil. And that up there,

... is him following Steed.

Steed is leading him to Vasil!

I lose that helicopter. Turning west. Turn!

- Gambit, but the road! - So what, turn!

Where are we going, Gambit?

I follow that helicopter.

- But this is a field! - I know. Follow the helicopter.

- If he passes a cliff, do we follow? - We certainly try!

What better way for Perov to reinstate himself and return home of hero with blaze of glory?

With Vasil's head.

It's going down!

We lost him!

We, Purdey?

Listen, it's landing. Somewhere beyond those trees.

You take the road. I cut back

Time to go proffessor.

I may be doing too much, but I have to convince you.

There is only one exit and I have it covered.

You could try to run perhaps,

but you must realize you would present the perfect target that even I could miss.

What do you want?

Not you. Why kill you? You have served your purpose.

I want Vasil.

Proffessor Vasil.

I fancy taking him all in style with me.

However if you refuse,

then regrettably I shall be forced to set fire to the place.

And say goodbye to glory and oth of you.

I have a grenade for the purpose.

But why should you die?

Why indeed?

What's the deal?

Vasil out of the door. You'll remain inside ...

... while we walk away.

You have got just five seconds!

I'm a busy man.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five !

All right!

He is coming out.

Don't you understand, Proffesor?

Mr. Steed used his discretion in this direction.

Walk towards me, please.

Far enough Proffessor.

A fire grenade could not guarantee your death.

And it is only your death which will reinstate me.

Goodbye, Proffessor.

- Knock out. - He hit me!

He shot Vasil.

It wouldn't be appropriate for me to stand there ...

... and risk the proffessor's life.

Suppose you were shot in the head?

Perov?

He's one of the old school mean and nasty.

He always aim for the body then if you miss your maim.

You know?

John Steed.

You're beautiful.

And experience.
